Abstract

The meso dimension of the Regional Human Resource Development (Regional HRD) ecosystem in Southeast Asia consists of networks of actors that influence HRD policy and practice in the region. This content dimension includes components such as educational institutions like universities and technical and vocational education and training (TVET) institutions that influence HRD primarily within national boundaries but by extension influence the region’s workforce. This dimension also includes a host of networks related to HRD such as professional networks like the Asia Pacific Federation of Human Resource Management and the ASEAN Human Development Organization as well as family, peer, and consultant networks. This chapter also describes the role that international organizations such as the Asian Development Bank, the Economic Research Institute for ASEAN and East Asia, and the Asian Partnership for the Development of Human Resources in Rural Areas play in influencing HRD policy and practice in the region.
